Frequently Asked Questions
How often should an ELT be inspected or serviced?
ELTs should be inspected at least once every 12 months or as recommended by the manufacturer.
This inspection typically includes checking the operational status, battery life, and overall condition of the unit.
What are the common issues that require ELT repair?
Common issues include battery depletion, antenna damage, faulty wiring, or problems with the activation mechanism.
Regular maintenance can help identify and address these issues before they lead to failure in an emergency.
Can I replace the battery in my ELT myself?
It is recommended that ELT batteries be replaced by a certified technician or service centre.
This ensures that the replacement is done correctly and that the device functions as intended during emergencies.
How do I know if my ELT is transmitting during an emergency?
Most ELTs have an indicator that shows when the transmitter is active.
Additionally, periodic testing according to the manufacturer's guidelines can ensure that the unit is operational.
Is there a recommended replacement period for an ELT?
The replacement period for an ELT can vary based on the manufacturer's recommendations and usage.
However, most ELTs should be replaced every 5 to 6 years or as specified by the manufacturer.
